Aha! I remember this! Well you know how to start the paragraph. Write a sentence about the theme of being buried alive! It's horrific, isn't it?

anonymous · Answer

yes

kyanthedoodle · Answer

So then the first sentence of your well-developed paragraph should be "The Premature Burial is a horror-themed short story about a man being buried alive."

anonymous · Answer

and after ?

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Describe what parts of the story make it horrific. Perhaps talk a little bit more about connecting the reader to the situation. Picture yourself down in the ground in suffocation, gasping for air! Or something like that.
